Nightmares of Anarchy: Language and Cultural Change, 1870-1914

MY DEEPEST THANKS GO TO MY WIFE ANN, WHO MANAGED A PERFECT BALance of encouragement and firmness through four moves, two children, and a book of her own. She has been indispensable as a
sounding board and an editor as well. Special thanks go to the members of my dissertation committee at the University of North Carolina for their feedback and perceptive criticism: John McGowan,
Beverly Taylor, Townsend Ludington, Linda Wagner-Martin, and
James Thompson. Also deserving of thanks are the library staffs of
the University of North Carolina, Beloit College, the University of
Northern Illinois, the University of North Alabama, and Maryville
College for their patience and help. Thanks also go to Evelyn Hinz,
editor of Mosaic, who published a much altered version of chapter
four, "Industrialism and Utopia, ” under the title "Tropes and Parodies of Capitalist Biography: Andrew Carnegie and The Memoirs
of an American Citizen, ” published in Mosaic 32:1 (March 1999),
p. 17—34.
